Chapter 335 Underground Castle
Hermione backed away again and again, to the top of the stairs.
This is a spiral staircase built along the mountain. The spiral staircase has three sections, and there are small platform intervals between each section.
The spiral staircase is about five feet wide, and the workmanship is rough. Although it is narrow, it should not be dangerous to walk in general.
Hermione retreated to the platform, turned, and confronted the Dreadrat.
These fear rats look very ferocious, about three feet in length.
They bared their teeth and raised their heads high, ready to attack Hermione.
Hermione drew out her wand, trying to block their attacks with obstacles.
However, one of them jumped up suddenly, like an arrow that left the string, and rushed towards Hermione.
"All bullets!" Hermione yelled.
The gravel and gravel on the platform, as well as the skeletons of those small animals, instantly attacked the charging Dreadrat like cannonballs.
The Dreadrat wailed sharply, was smashed into a sieve, fell from the air, and blood flowed all over the ground.
At the same time, the other two Dreadrats were staring at Luna, as if ready to attack at any moment.
Luna tentatively took a step back, which was like a signal, and the black mouths of the two Dreadrats drooped, revealing a ferocious expression, and they rushed forward.
Allen's hand holding the wand couldn't help tightening. He controlled his desire to step forward to help solve the problem. Luna, Hermione and even himself needed to practice their actual combat skills, and the strength of the Dreadrat was just the right opponent for her two.
And with the abilities of these Dreadmouses, even if they were injured, the injuries would not be too serious.
What's more, with Alan here, as long as he is not fatally injured, he should be cured instantly.
"All petrified!" The Dreadrat on the left still kept the posture of pounced, froze in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.
The Dreadrat on the right was still baring its teeth, unabated in the slightest, and rushed towards Luna viciously.
Hermione hurriedly ran to Luna, wanting to support her.
"Ah-ah!"
Hermione was too impatient, and didn't notice that the steps in front of her were stained with Dreadrat blood and became very smooth. She was caught off guard and fell down the stairs, while Alan, who had been observing the battle situation, directly apparated over Ready to pick people up with a wand.
"Iron Armor!" Luna shouted, and the other Dreadmouse that jumped at Luna seemed to hit an invisible wall, flew out, and fell down the stairs.
Luna hurried to the edge of the stairs and looked around.
I saw the unlucky Dreadrat writhing its limbs desperately in the air, but to no avail. It fell to the platform on the second floor and twitched feebly on the ground, obviously seriously injured.
And Hermione—
The phantom feather cloak on her unfurled in the air, leading her down the spiral staircase and gliding to the platform on the lower floor, where Hermione landed safely.
Luna quickly rushed from the spiral staircase to the platform where Alan and Hermione were.
"Hermione, are you okay?" Allen, who didn't make a move in the end, looked at Hermione's slightly pale face and asked worriedly.
"I'm fine, Alan. This cloak prevented me from being hurt." Hermione was in shock. She held the corner of the cloak with her hand, very grateful.
"The reason why I didn't make a move was because I thought it was a good opportunity for actual combat, and I believe you can solve it, and you did." Allen patted her on the shoulder reassuringly, and the three continued to move forward.
They followed the spiral staircase to a small open space.
The clearing stretches to the north and south, and there are a large number of broken stone pillars scattered around it.
The castle that appeared in front of them was obviously the legendary Dark City, and the wooden gate of the castle tower stood not far to the west.
Around the castle, there were full of ruins formed by the collapse of stone pillars, but Allen stopped after only a little trial.
Because with his movements, the stones of the ruins would keep shaking, and Allen's exploration was hindered and he could only stop.
However, Allen noticed that small creatures can still crawl in the gaps under the stones, such as mice or smaller creatures can walk through the gaps at will,
But only at a quarter of normal speed.
Allen retreated cautiously, trying his best to prevent the stone pillar from collapsing.
Suddenly, he stopped, pointed the wand backwards, and "ravaged the internal organs"-a dreadrat that wanted to attack from behind suddenly fell to the ground and kept rolling.
A creature under this spell, at first, its internal organs will start to stir, and its body will be extraordinarily strong, or it will be able to withstand the pain and successfully cast a counter-curse such as the spell standing stop in a short period of time, and it will be able to resist.
Otherwise, the multiple viscera of the target creature will be stirred in the body under the influence of the spell, and then ejected from the abdominal cavity, causing its death.
If Allen continues to cast the spell, the internal organs of this Dreadmouse will fly directly to Allen and integrate into his body, and the vitality contained in it can provide a certain healing effect.
But for Alan, who is obsessed with cleanliness, he doesn't want to touch the internal organs of the Dreadmouse at all.
Moreover, the internal organs of the Dreadmouse were scattered on the ground, which could attract other Dreadmouse so that they would no longer track Alan and the others.
"Stop." Allen suddenly stopped Hermione and Luna.
The two stopped obediently, watching Alan squat down curiously, observing the ground in front of him.
"Look, the color of that piece of soil is a bit different from the surrounding ones, and their humidity is slightly different. It looks like it has just been refurbished."
Allen pointed to an area ahead and said.
He drew out his wand, used the floating spell, and controlled a stone pillar on the ruins to fly to that area.
As the stone pillar fell, a trap appeared in front of the three of them.
In the trap, there were two skeletons of Dinosaurs, one dead about a week ago, and a live Dreadrat.
The Dreadrat survived by feeding on its dead kind, but was trapped by the restoration of the mechanism.
"We can go down the road over there," said Hermione.
Allen nodded. At the same time, he suggested that everyone put on the soft shoe covers in the H94 uniform equipment first, so as to avoid making noise when walking and alarming the people inside.
Around the trap, there was an edge about one foot wide for advancing, and the three of them bypassed the trap quietly.
He continued to walk for a long distance, and finally reached the door safely.
The wooden door in front of it looks no different from an ordinary door. But none of the three acted rashly.
Allen first checked whether there was a mechanism on the door. After getting a negative answer, he leaned forward, leaned forward slightly, and listened to the movement behind the door.
Then, he took a few steps back, wand in hand, ready to attack at any time.
He glanced at Luna lightly, and Luna understood, "Alahoo is open", and the wooden door opened a crack silently.
After waiting for a while, there was no abnormality, and the three pushed the door open.
What appeared in front of me was a circular hall with broken stones scattered in it.
In addition, they also found four torn Dreadrat corpses, and there were still black blood stains on the wall behind them.
Allen stepped forward, observed carefully, and came to a conclusion: "Judging from these scars, it should be done by a werewolf!"
